Spoiling chookens

Well, chickdees, I was going to say that Dad was on the up and up but today he's gone back a bit so we'll hold off on the Grand Parade for his return home.
The men folk found a pretty little Silkie hen which happened to 'follow them home' (after money exchanged hands with the breeder) and we are now blessed with a Buff Silkie hen daintily stepping about the fernery (as our 2 big white Leghorn gals, Trinian and Latte, were too bold, brassy and bullying for the little lady).Yes.I can see this one being spoilt.*snort*
Must go macerate her mash with my own teeth before slowly roasting it in a light marinade of olive oil and oregano -NO!I'm only kidding!
Who on earth would use oregano as a roasting marinade when there's buckets of thyme available?yes, yes, kidding.
